The Cure for Writer's Block

Why do some writers never seem to have a problem producing a nearly endless flow of stories while others find themselves perpetually staring at a blank page?

In The Cure for Writerâ€™s Block, Andrew Mayne, named Amazon UKâ€™s top five best-selling author of the year, occasional television magician and prolific writer of fiction and nonfiction, including the Amazon #1 bestselling book on authorship, How to Write a Novella in 24 Hours, shares the secrets to unlocking your creative potential.

From inception to completion, The Cure for Writerâ€™s Block helps you diagnose what kind of writerâ€™s block youâ€™re experiencing and how to cure it.

Writerâ€™s Lock: When you have a great idea but just canâ€™t figure out how to get started.

Writerâ€™s Knot: When youâ€™re in the middle of your book and you donâ€™t know where to go next or what happened to the passion.
